Hi all
Had my “hemi” this afternoon and only just beginning to feel properly awake. Bigger wound than I was expecting and it hurts so much. I keep wanting to cough which is annoying.
Now the worst bit - waiting for the histology report to come back
Hi
I'm hoping that now that it's been a few days after your operation you're feeling a lot more comfortable. Waiting for results is definitely a horrible time but I'm hoping that you're managing to find nice ways to distract yourself.
Wishing you all the best

Are you taking any pain medication that you were told to take ?
I was told to take what was recommended whether I thought I needed it or not. The idea is that you don't wait to feel pain before taking the pain killers but rather keep on top of the pain by taking them in advance, if that makes sense. I found that after I'd taken them for the recommended time I felt slight discomfort rather than pain.
I too was really nervous when I had my stitches removed but I literally didn't feel a thing. Maybe I was just lucky but hopefully it'll be the same for you.

Hopefully the drugs they prescribed will do the trick. Remember, there are no prizes for not taking medication!
I hope everything goes well on Thursday and that you have an enjoyable Christmas.
